The essential oil from the leaves of the Serbian black currant cultivar Cacanska crna, obtained by hydrodistillation, was analyzed by gas Chromatography flame ionization detection and GC-mass spectrometry. The most abundant volatile compounds were ?3-carene (18.7 %), ?-caryophyllene (17.7 %), sabinene (11.6 %), cis-?-ocimene (10.6 %) and ?-terpinolene (10.6%). The antimicrobial activity of the oil was evaluated against 14 micro-organisms, including two clinical isolated strains, using the broth microdilution method. The most susceptible micro-organisms were Escherichia coli, Streptococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans and Trichophyton mentagrophytes isolates. Furthermore, the flavonol aglycones in the leaves after acid hydrolysis were qualitatively and quantitatively analysed by HPLC, and quercetin was found to be the dominant compound (84 mg/g dw).

Summary This experiment evaluated the effect of soil management systems in a black currant planting on the generative potential (number of flowers per inflorescence, number of berries per cluster and yield per bush), physical attributes of the cluster and fruit (berry weight and cluster weight) and chemical properties of the fruit (soluble solids content, total sugars, titratable acidity, total anthocyanins, total phenolic content and vitamin C) of black currant cultivars. Three soil management systems were used: treatment I – bare fallow i.e. continuous tillage; treatment II – sawdust mulch, and treatment III – black polyethylene foil mulch. Four black currant cultivars were included - ‘Ben Lomond’, ‘Titania’, ‘Čačanska crna’ and ‘Tiben’. The soil management systems had a significant effect on the tested parameters. The cultivars also showed highly significant differences. Soil management system x cultivar interactions were observed for generative potential, and physical properties of the cluster and fruit, but not for fruit chemical traits, except in the soluble solids content.

Summary This experiment evaluated the effect of soil management systems on the vegetative growth potential of black currant (Ribes nigrum L.) cultivars. Three soil management systems were used: I – bare fallow i.e. continuous tillage; II – sawdust mulch, and III – black polyethylene foil mulch. Six black currant cultivars were included: ‘Ben Lomond’, ‘Ben Sarek’, ‘Titania’, ‘Čačanska Crna’, ‘Tisel’ and ‘Tiben’. The highest values of vegetative growth parameters were obtained in 'Čačanska Crna' and 'Ben Lomond' and the lowest in 'Ben Sarek'. Bare fallow and sawdust mulch treatments showed no differences in the tested parameters, whereas significantly lower values were recorded under foil mulch treatment.

Black currant (Ribes nigrumL.) possesses excellent antioxidant activity since it is rich in a great deal of phenolics, while its major phenolics, anthocyanins, are sensitive to light. This study investigated the anthocyanins stability and antioxidant activity of black currant extracts (BCE) stored under natural outdoor/indoor light and in the dark for 25 days. The anthocyanins content and antioxidant activity significantly decreased both in the presence and absence of light (P<0.05). The degradation of anthocyanins followed first-order kinetics, and the k values in light were higher than that in the dark, which revealed that the anthocyanins were more stable in the dark. Exposure of the BCE to light accelerated the degradation of anthocyanins and the loss of antioxidant activity, while BCE stored in darkness maintained relatively higher anthocyanins content and antioxidant activity. These results suggested that the BCE rich in anthocyanins should be protected from light during storage to maintain its antioxidant activity and bioactive compounds.
